Re: [RC] Trucks - Stefffi_cWendy, The guy I board with had the same problem with his F250 SD truck. Turns out that Ford uses *plastic* gears in the 4x4s. Yes, Plastic... He had his replaced with better parts and loves his truck now. I have a 1989 Chevy 1/2 ton 350 engine with 190,000 and I'm still hauling with it. Also have used my SUV (another Chevy, S-10 Blazer, V6 4.3) to haul my horse. I've been really pleased with both our Chevy's. Had a tranny put in my truck, they did a poor job, and used a different place for the SUVs tranny, also had a hauling shifter (whatever that is....) and tranny cooler put on the SUV and it's hauled like a dream since then!

My 2000 Ford truck had the transmission replaced at 23,000 km and the transfer case and front differential replaced at 49,000 km. It is now making a grinding noise in 4-wheel drive. Think I got a lemon. Anybody have any advice about the new GMC 1500 Heavy Duty V8 6.0 litre? I pull an aluminum Sundowner 2-horse straight load with 4-foot dressing room and rarely haul more than one 940 pound Arab. Thanks! __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
